The olive oil samples are tested for authenticity, adulteration, substitution or dilution with cheaper oils by assessing the sterol and fatty acid profile by gas chromatography. The sampled expensive oils are tested to determine if the fatty acid and sterol profiles, and other parameters, meet the standard for these oils by gas liquid chromatography.

Analyses were conducted by a contracted laboratory to detect these and other added foreign sugars, including C3 types.

Biometrics refers to the measurement and use of your unique body characteristics (e.g. fingerprints, retinas, facial structure, speech, or vein patterns). For example, you can use your fingerprint as a form of authentication to unlock your mobile device. If using your biometrics for authentication, we recommend using them with a password or PIN for an added layer of protection (i.e.
